BATON ROUGE - State police are investigating after a man was shot and killed by an East Baton Rouge sheriff's deputy Wednesday.

Authorities say the incident occurred just after 4 p.m. in the 600 block of North Ardenwood Drive. According to the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office, a deputy was serving a temporary restraining order in the area when another person, covered in blood and claiming to have been stabbed, approached the officer. At some point, a struggle apparently broke out and that person was shot by the deputy.

The man was taken to an area hospital where he died later that same night. The sheriff's office says it is also unclear if he was actually stabbed before the shooting.

Louisiana State Police has taken over the investigation, as is protocol for all officer-involved shootings. The deputy was not injured and has been placed on administrative leave.
